Peter Murphy - The Last And Only Star

Beggars Arkive has unveiled a comprehensive "hallucinatory revelation" for Peter Murphy fans, reissuing his entire Beggars Banquet solo catalog on limited colored vinyl. Spanning the first decade of his post-Bauhaus career (1986–1995), these pressings bring "breathtaking clarity" to Murphy's evolution from experimental art-rock to the "ten-ton alternative hits" of the early 90s. Alongside the five studio albums, Arkive has released The Last And Only Star, a "soul-baring" collection of rarities, demos, and deep cuts previously unavailable on wax.

Each album has been "raucously and resiliently" pressed on a unique color variant that reflects its specific "cinematic landscape." From the "otherworldly wails" of his debut to the "sultry depth" of his commercial peak, these limited editions are mandatory cornerstones for any "disciple of the Thin White Duke's successor."
